Support Trafficked & Abused girls in Kenya

Thank You For All Your Support in 2012

By Edith Murogo - Project Leader

This report is dedicated to all of you great people who have continued to support the vision of the Talia Agler Girls' Shelter (TAGS) in Nairobi, Kenya. The TAGS was dedicated to the loving memory of the wonderful Talia Agler by the Centre for Domestic Training and Development, following her death in January, 2012. We are very grateful to all of you for the support that you have continued to give us in the implementation of our project targeting trafficked and abused girls. As we reflect on the year that was, we wish to share with you the following highlights of 2012:

A total of 47 girls were rescued in 2012.

33 out of the 47 girls were reintegrated or reunited with family

6 girls have been placed in boarding schools (5 in primary school while 1 girl is in secondary school) so that they can continue with their education as their families are not able to support them

8 of the remaining girls are awaiting family tracing at the shelter while they benefit from inhouse counselling and basic education.

In 2013, CDTD wishes to reach out to more girls in need and offer them holistic care and protection. We are confident that with your support we shall reach at least 60 girl victims of trafficking and other abuses. Please feel encouraged as you give for every cent counts.

This year we look forward to raising more friends so please help us to get your friends involved so that we can assist most needy girls whose dreams have been shattered.
